Winter Solstice Ceremony | December 21 | acac Downtown
Amidst the tranquil, hushed embrace of the Winter Solstice, join Yogi Lynsie McKeown for an immersive journey within, where we will honor stillness as the space of sacred alchemy. In the darkness, powerful transformation unfolds—shedding the past and creating space for new growth. Through gentle yoga asana, pranayama, yoga nidra, reflection, and a sacred fire ceremony, we will transmute challenges into insights, strength, and renewal. Rest deeply, align with nature’s rhythms, and emerge ready to step into the unknown with grounded clarity and intention. To ensure your comfort during this special 2 hour event, please bring 2-3 blankets, a pillow, and a lightweight eye cover for yoga nidra. While props are available, they are limited in supply. This event sells out every year, so be sure to sign up in advance to reserve your spot! Register on the member portal/app.

White Stone Ceremony: Anchoring New Beginnings | January 11 | acac Downtown
As the New Year dawns, we are filled with hope and excitement for a fresh start. Yet, without a solid anchor, that creative energy can quickly fade. Ritual and ceremony provide that grounding support. Join us for a White Stone Ceremony led by Lynsie McKeown, an ancient ritual symbolizing freedom, where we will delve deep into our hearts for guidance and distill that inspiration into a tangible symbol—a word or name etched onto a white stone. Through a blend of yoga, pranayama, reflection, and ritual, we will nourish and ground our visions for the year ahead. Let this practice deepen your resolve, uplift your spirit, and align you with your highest potential! Please bring your own yoga mat if you have one, and be sure to sign up in advance. Space is limited, and this event sells out each year. Register on the member portal/app. Members: $30 | Non-Members: $50
